For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.

Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

On Friday it was about 31°C and high humidity, so I opted to shorten my route. (sopuli.xyz)

This "sauna" weather isn't the best for bikepacking, I had to take breaks pretty often. There is cherry season so you always find "reason" to stop for some "snack".

Bro I love seeing bikes on trains/busses.

I'm glad that train has a dedicated spot for your bike! I'm seeing more of it existing!

It is standard on these regional trains here. When the weather is nice loads of people use it.

Busses don't like bikes here, but it usually isn't problem because we have dense rail network and you can ride about 5km to nearest station.
